Thanks Alice and Qin,

Snipping down to point 6.

[AR] hey-ho, indeed. Happy to revert to original or update each to a complete 
sentence (which leads to some repetition, e.g., "Foo: A Foo is a lovely 
thing."). Please let us know your preference.

[AF2] Although it is more of an edit, and recognising that not all people think 
Foos are lovely, I would prefer to go to full sentences.

[AR] updated accordingly.

> "Occurrence" I'll be led by you on fine-grain/fine-grained. I thought:

> This is a handful of fine-grained particles.

[AR] If the intended meaning is 'concerned with or using small details' [1], 
the one instance in this document seems fine:

      *  An Occurrence may be an aggregation or abstraction of multiple
         fine-grained Events or Changes.

[1] This definition is from 
https://dictionary.cambridge.org/us/dictionary/english/fine-grained because the 
Merriam-Webster definition is not useful ("characterized by comparatively fine 
graininess").  

[AF2] Does Merriam-Webster have a definition for "useless" and "ROFL"?
Your change is good.

Cheers,
Adrian
